Hist + Econ

Transfer Students
1

<p>I'm transfering under the history major, however I'm thinking about doubling up with an econ major as well. I will have all my hist pre-reqs done by my enrollment at a UC and was wondering a few things: </p>

<p>1) Will I be allowed to choose econ as a double major even though I transferred into the school under History?</p>

<p>2) Is econ part of business school? I mean will I prevented from doing this because I don't have the grades to get into UCB, UCLA, UCSB, UCD bus schools (assuming they have them)</p>

<p>3) If I end up going to UCD/UCSB will majoring in econ really help at all? I heard <em>good</em> financial institutions don't recruit at these schools and it is much harder to get a job unless u go to a ucb/ucla type school. </p>

<p>**Just submitted my app today, let the waiting begin...</p>

<p>1) yes you should be able to double major when you get to the school, but you might have to talk to the department or be entered into a pre-major status, until you complete all the required pre-major classes. </p>

<p>I don't really know much about econ majors at their respective schools so I can't really answer #2 and #3.</p>

<p>Best of luck with your application, I still have to submit mine :(</p>
